    摘要: Techniques for controlling transmit power and the amount of overlapping in a quasi-orthogonal system are described. A base station for a sector receives transmissions from terminals in that sector and neighbor sectors and determines performance metrics (e.g., overall throughput) and/or QoS metrics (e.g., minimum data rate) for the terminals in the sector. The base station updates an overlapping factor based on the performance metrics and updates a QoS power control parameter based on the QoS metrics. The overlapping factor indicates the average number of overlapping transmissions sent simultaneously on each time-frequency block usable for data transmission. The QoS power control parameter ensures that the terminals in the sector can achieve minimum QoS requirements. A power control mechanism with multiple loops is used to adjust the transmit power of each terminal. The overlapping factor and QoS power control parameter are updated by two of the loops.

    摘要: A channel structure has at least two channel sets. Each channel set contains multiple channels and is associated with a specific mapping of the channels to the system resources available for data transmission. Each channel set may be defined based on a channel tree having a hierarchical structure. To achieve intra-cell interference diversity, the channel-to-resource mapping for each channel set is pseudo-random with respect to the mapping for each remaining channel set. In each scheduling interval, terminals are scheduled for transmission on the forward and/or reverse link. The scheduled terminals are assigned channels from the channel sets. Multiple terminals may use the same system resources and their overlapping transmissions may be separated in the spatial domain. For example, beamforming may be performed to send multiple overlapping transmissions on the forward link, and receiver spatial processing may be performed to separate out multiple overlapping transmissions received on the reverse link.

    摘要: To select a rate for a transmitter in a communication system, a receiver obtains a channel response estimate and a received SINR estimate for the transmitter, e.g., based on a pilot received from the transmitter. The receiver computes a hypothesized SINR for the transmitter based on the channel response estimate and the received SINR estimate. The receiver then selects a rate for the transmitter based on (1) the hypothesized SINR and (2) characterized statistics of noise and interference at the receiver for the transmitter, which may be given by a probability density function (PDF) of SINR loss with respect to the hypothesized SINR. A look-up table of rate versus hypothesized SINR may be generated a priori for the PDF of SINR loss. The receiver may then apply the hypothesized SINR for the transmitter to the look-up table, which then provides the rate for the transmitter.
